Thanks for the talk. Does the MVHR system not make it easier to use more modern building materials?

So how close did you get to Enerphit standard? did you get close to the air tightness of 1?

And of course steep stairs are a no no

Love the film of Iona's new home. Marriage of an exciting new sustainable home with all the family treasures and history.

Excellent presentation, thanks!

Nice presentation, but you can see Phil pointing at a screen with his hand which we can't see. So next time try to include these slides. I'm currently in the proces of a deep retrofit myself, having a detached house which was already white painted brick the decision for EWI rendered over all around was easy, albeit it being very costly. But at the same time the results are much better than with any other form of wall insulation, unless you are prepared to lose several m² in each room for IWI. Above all no cold bridging if your roof and floor connections are done right. My former damp and mouldy house is now bone dry and I had to place some bowls of water to evaporate, but plants in clay pots also do well in humidifying the air. A couple of air to air heat pump units and a wood stove are now sufficient to heat the quite large house, even on the few ice days we already had. The wooden floor in the living room still has to go, a solid concrete and well insulated floor with UFH will go in, moisture under the floor isn't an issue, the water table is deep and the foundations are also deep enough, the clay soil seals against any water from outside. I stick with Phil's philosophy of using natural materials only on the inside, PIR and EPS being on the outside of the walls and roof. This also for fire safety reasons, the vapours of smouldering plastics can kill very quickly, natural materials will give off smoke which you or your smoke alarms will notice far before these get lethal. Rockwool will not burn but isn't very carbon friendly in manufacturing.

Client & designers working together. Nice.

Great presentation but porr video - where were all the pictures you were discussing and shown at the time you were discussing them.

Interesting stuff, great work! Would be great to see the slides simultaneously though

Lovely scheme.

Phil great presentation - can you send me your slides?

Woow

I love these houses but it is a lot of work 😊 thank you for the video

Fantastic explanation that rings true.

So nice to see it completed and bedded in and what a great process distilling the important things from old to new!

if you could explain or show more of the system then maybe it would be more understandable

How is this not on VeeR yet? It would definitely get more views .

This is awesome. It's like I'm there again. Thanks Tomas.
